Now Jollyrei, one dismal day
Took up his sickle blade,
And off he went, this spectral gent
To seek a mortal maid.
To cause no fright he went by night
His journey was quite long;
To pass the time he sang a rhyme
And this was Jolly’s song:
“Preserve your breath, for I am death!
“And well you know my role!
“Please don’t despair, O maiden fair
“I’ve come to take your soul!”
The ghostly male crossed hill and dale
Towards the lady’s fate.
But even though he’d far to go
He still was not...
